they all yellow and small?

  Subject: [mou] Request for bird identification


  I was wondering if anyone could identify a bird for me.  This bird =
came to my crabapple tree in Hastings on May 12th.  That was the only =
day I saw him.  He was a bright, vivid yellow with no other markings.  =
He had a broad orange beak with a tad of black at the tip and had orange =
legs.  I would guess his size to be slightly smaller than a Chickadee. =
I'm not sure, but it appeared he may have had some downy feathers.

  David Cahlander has put two photographs I took of this bird on the web =
sites below if you would like to help me identify the bird.
